H_Toser Random iCardz in New NSU
Hi All:
The Dec/Jan issue of NSU is scheduled to start shipping today. I wanted to post a quick heads up about a card that will be found in random issues.
iCardz, maker of the "Lest We Forget" D-Day series, made a special card for the Philly Non-Sports Card Show last month. The cards got stuck in customs and arrived the day after the show had ended. We decided to randomly insert these cards in the new issue (obviously, there were not enough for every copy). The card is not listed on the cover but there is an explanation about it inside the issue.
Below is a picture of the card. I don't have an exact insertion ratio but its about 1 in every 15 or 20 copies.
Thanks.

Barbara C That looks like a nice card. I may have to buy an extra copy of the magazine, but it will be worth it.
